Dubai Chambers strengthens China partnerships ahead of Dubai Business Forum
Summary
Dubai Chambers is preparing to host the Dubai Business Forum – China in Shenzhen on 14 October 2026, under the theme 'Momentum at Scale: Accelerating Shared Success.' The event will gather senior government officials, business leaders, investors, and public and private sector representatives to explore cooperation, trade, and investment opportunities between Dubai and China. It is part of Dubai Chambers' efforts to deepen engagement with the Chinese business community and support companies seeking to establish or expand operations in Dubai. The forum also aims to highlight Dubai's digital infrastructure and industrial ecosystem.
Why it matters
For Dubai and UAE-based businesses, this forum provides a direct platform to connect with Chinese partners, investors, and government representatives, potentially opening new trade and investment channels and strengthening Dubai's position as a gateway for Chinese companies expanding internationally.
Dubai / UAE impact
If successful, the forum could encourage more Chinese firms to set up in Dubai, potentially boosting demand for commercial space, professional services, and talent — with knock-on effects for the local business ecosystem and job market.
